DRIVECLUB release date October 8th 2014 confirmed by YOSP

Hi all. It’s a big day for us at Worldwide Studios as we are now in a position to announce a launch date for the much anticipated PS4 exclusive title from Evolution Studios – DRIVECLUB.

The team has been working relentlessly on the game and have captured a new video to showcase just how impressive it’s currently looking. I absolutely loved it so please watch through to find out the date.

We planned for the game to be ready for early 2014 and are committed to delivering on our ambitious promise of creating a truly innovative, socially connected racing game. The problem with being ambitious is you have to be prepared to accept there will be challenges along the way. What DRIVECLUB offers has not been previously achieved in this category and because of this, the team needed more time to give you the game you’re waiting for.

In addition to the new date, we are also very pleased to announce that as of February 2014, Paul Rustchynsky – better known as Rushy – has been at the helm of DRIVECLUB as Game Director.

His experience when it comes to delivering racing games is impeccable. Previously Game Director on critically acclaimed MotorStorm RC, he has been an integral contributor to all major titles coming out of Evolution Studios since 2004. With Rushy in the lead, we know DRIVECLUB will deliver on its initial promise to be a truly next gen racing title for our PS4 portfolio.

We are really proud of the incredible work the team has produced – their tenacity and passionate pursuit of excellence is admirable and DRIVECLUB will be all the better for it.

Your anticipation for the title since my last update has been a huge source of motivation for the team at Evolution Studios, and I know they are all extremely grateful for your continued support.

Look out for plenty more news on DRIVECLUB in the coming weeks including a blog update direct from Rushy tomorrow, and don’t forget, the date is in the trailer. I hope you enjoy watching it.

Those challenges that appear during a race looks like something I could get addicted to, and the club aspect seems awesome, so I'll most likely get it. Only question is if I should buy the PS+ upgrade or the physical edition.

Looks like our first E3 game trailer before E3, haha. This game looks fantastic.

Thanks to Kwes for the signature!

Oct 7th is the US date, Oct 8th is the EU. So this means that Alien Isolation, Shadow of Mordor, and Dragon Age 3 all come out on the same day. Batman: Arkham Knight comes out the very next week. I really wish they would spread out the releases a bit more. I hate how we will go with months of no games to a single month with too many releases. You would think it would benefit to not launch everything at the same time.

In before, The Order 1886 Oct 7th launch date lololol.
